  1. We need to protect this guy in the expansion draft. Absolute gem of a player. Congrats on some security Tyler. You earned it.
  2. Odd. I thought he would try to sign with a contender. Philly made sense to me
  3. I could see the Flames claiming him. They need center depth and with a Hockey Gnome trade they would have the room.
  4. Tough to see the warrior leave. But simply couldn't leave Demko exposed next years expansion draft. He would be plucked.
  5. Perfect term. We can protect Demko and no way Seattle wastes a goalie pick on a one year Holtby.
  6. Demko is a gem. If he was in the deal and LE and maybe even Sven weren't, I would be choked.
  7. Nice to know what the signing of the day is this early on. Shut off the televisions now.
  8. Center market can be a tough one and our organization depth at C is crap.
  9. If not now, Sutter could be traded at the deadline. Turris on a two year would be nice center depth.
  10. 1000 pm deadline set to lock up the thread? Lol.
  11. He will be if it's a one year, show me. This just isn't the year to dramatically change the D. Patience and one step backwards to move two forward. If no silly signings are made this year we will be sitting pretty to pounce after this season.
  12. All good. Made an offer on a tough to find top notch Dman that didn't go through. Love that JB is being patient and not doing anything silly on this deal. I really wanted OEL, but only if it made sense.
  13. Exactly. Very difficult to make moves in the coming years if you commit term and salary now. Been thinking and the team may need to take one step back to move two forward. JB may be thinking the same thing.
  14. Same with almost every other player on that sad sack team.
  15. But isn't that what JB is doing? Trying to get Arizona to take a cap dump player as part of a trade for a top end dman? Dman of this talent come up very rarely. When they do they cost assets to aquire or long term expensive contracts, UFA. Add to that they have to want to sign with your team. OEL wants here, has two teams on his list, has owners who want to trim payroll. I don't see the problem with trying to aquire him. If your suggesting waiting for a Seth Jones type to come up for trade then get ready to trade a Horvat in return. If OEL can be aquired while dumping some cap, without touching our core, or Pods or Hogs, I'm all over it.
  16. How do you propose obtaining a quality, top end, top two, possibly number one on some teams dman? They will all want term. Trades cost assets.
  17. I know. Why do they need AP. I thought their center depth looked horrible in the playoffs and their shooting accuracy as well. I hope they sign AP as it makes no sense to me. Unless they sign AP and trade from D depth.
